AHIMA RHIA Exam - Topic 4 Question 67 Discussion

You and your colleague are designing a study to try to determine the ideal mean cost for discretionary service. You will market your service to a very large population. Your colleague thinks you will get the best data if you take lots of small samples. You think the data will be neat reliable if you take one or two very large samples.
C) You are equally correct---there is little difference in the reliability of these sampling methods.
A) Your colleague is right---the mean of multiple samples will yield more reliable results.
B) You are right---the means of a few large samples will yield more reliable results.
D) You are equally wrong---unles you use stratified sampling, you cannot expect reliable

Not sure about that, I feel like stratified sampling is key here.

I vaguely remember something about stratified sampling being important for reliability, but I can't remember the details.

I think we practiced a question where multiple small samples provided a better estimate of the population mean. That might support my colleague's view.

I remember discussing how larger samples can reduce variability, but I'm not sure if that outweighs the benefits of smaller samples.

I'm pretty confident the answer is Tagged. That allows them to add more VLANs without changing the underlying infrastructure.

This looks like a pretty straightforward question. I'll start by reading through the options carefully and thinking about which ones seem like the main functions of the Enterprise Host Security HSS.

Okay, I think I've got this. I'll double-click the SmartArt graphic to make sure the SmartArt Tools and Design tabs are visible, and then I'll apply the Soft Round bevel shape effect from the Overview section.

I recall practicing with the Webex Directory Connector, but I think it was more about synchronizing user info rather than creating accounts.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused about the difference between the Tl-LFA and how it applies to OSPF areas versus instances. I'll need to review that part of the material again.

You know, if you really want reliable data, you should just ask the 8-ball. It's got all the answers, and it's way more fun than doing actual statistics.

Wait, we're supposed to use stratified sampling? What is this, Statistics 101? Clearly, the only way to get reliable results is to consult a psychic and let them choose the sampling method. Anything else is just guesswork.

Hmm, I'm not sure there's a clear-cut right answer here. Both approaches have their merits, and I can see valid arguments for either side. I might just flip a coin and go with whichever one it lands on.

Nah, I'm going with my gut on this one. Taking a few large samples will give us a much cleaner and more reliable data set. Who needs all those pesky small samples anyway?

I think my colleague's idea of taking multiple small samples is the way to go. The law of large numbers tells us that the mean of multiple samples will converge to the true population mean. Bigger isn't always better in this case.
